Dispute over office ship: Danube becomes the scene of heated debates!

Wien, Österreich - The debate about the planned Viadonau office boat at the person in Vienna ensures considerable tensions. The Viadonau has been working on the implementation of a new location directly on the Danube since 2019, but a decisive part of the plan could endanger the moorings for cruise ships. The subsidiary of Vienna Holding, Donaumaum Vienna, already sees restrictions in the operating process of the personal harbor in the current plans. The complex surface layout on the right bank of the Danube, where different areas of the federal government and the city of Vienna are already part of the stumbling block of discussions. Despite the approval of the magistrate for the office shipping, Donaumaume Vienna appeals and clears the way for a legal dispute before the Federal Administrative Court, as reported to Wien.orf.at.

dispute over situation and synergies

The controversial position of the office ship between twelve jetties could soon lead to traffic chaos in the water. The Viadonau believes that the optimal location of the ship near the Millennium City could create a synergy that not only improves the processes of the Viadonau, but also that of the highest shipping authority and the police. In a planning competition of 2020, the project of the Pittino & Ortner architecture firm ZT-Gesellschaft m.b.H. and other partners selected. These different views increase the complexity of the procedure, which is why the Financial City Councilor Peter Hanke (SPÖ) is now interested in to initiate discussions about a possible purchase of territories through the city of Vienna. These measures would aim to further develop the Waterfront and thus to find a solution to the existing conflicts, as vienna.at

With the continued legal dispute and the associated ambiguities, it remains to be observed how the planned development and the use of the personal port is to be observed. The questions about operating restrictions and possible harmonization of the processes are currently at the top of the decision -makers in Vienna.
